accessories are fastened firmly before exercise. Carefully
return the Cable Accessory to the start position before grip
is released.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
15.
Do not pull Cable beyond maximum Cable length:
• 72 inches (1829 mm) for bilateral Cable use
• 144 inches (3658 mm) for a unilateral Cable use
.
Failure to follow this direction will cause the Cable to hit
a hard stop and will create a sudden dynamic load that
may result in serious injury and/or equipment and property
damage.
16.
Never make adjustments to the resistance during exercise
as this may cause muscle strain. Always return the Cable
to the start position prior to making any adjustments to
help prevent injury.
17. Ensure that the Adjustment Plunger is fully engaged into
the desired position hole before use. There should be no
up/down movement of the Arm once it is set in position.
18. The highest level of safety can only be ensured if the
equipment is regularly inspected for damage and wear.
Always check that the Functional Trainer is securely
fastened to the Free-standing or Floor Mounted Base before
use (no tilt, lean, or any other movement of the unit should
be detected during use). Immediately replace damaged,
worn, or broken parts. Do not use the Functional Trainer
until all repairs have been completed and tested by a Keiser-
certified technician.
19. Use only replacement parts supplied/recommended
by Keiser Corporation. Attempting to repair or replace
any damaged, worn, or broken parts on your own is not
recommended. A Keiser-certified technician should be
consulted.
20.
The use of any exercise equipment, including, without
limitation, Keiser’s strength training equipment in which
resistance can be changed at anytime during the repetition,
without proper instruction and supervision violates the terms
of the agreement for purchase of such products. The ability
to add resistance anytime during a repetition, including,
without limitation, the ability to do a heavy negative may be
dangerous, especially for anyone that does not recognize
or respect the potential danger.

Functional Trainer shall determine the suitability of the
Functional Trainer for its intended use, and said parties
are specifically put on notice that they shall assume all risk
and liability in connection herewith.

regulated by a person responsible for determining the
suitability of use and maintenance.
